Book The History of Wine as a Medicine

Download or read book The History of Wine as a Medicine written by Philip Norrie and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-02 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book is the first to describe mankinds 5,000 year history of using wine as a medicine. Wine is our oldest, most documented and best preventative medicine. It reduces the rate of death from all causes by up to 50% by minimising vascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes by up to 50% and dementia by up to 80%. This text rewrites the history of wine by showing that the first grape wine was actually made in China and not Georgia, as current theory suggests. It contains a unique detailed chronology of wine as a medicine from 9,500 years ago in China until today. It also details some interesting stories about wine, such as its use to help keep convicts alive during their long voyage to Australia, its use in Australian lunatic asylums, Australias many Wine Doctors such as Penfold and Lindeman, and the American Presidents who championed wine. The book also contains a chapter on one of the main health components of wine, namely resveratrol; written by Professor Joseph Maroon, the famous American neurosurgeon for the American NFL who is an expert on concussion injuries and a great advocate for the use of resveratrol to delay the aging process. It shows that the best way to absorb resveratrol is as a liquid via the buccal mucosa or lining of the mouth and not as pills or capsules. That is why it is best to swirl wine around in your mouth for a minute or two before swallowing it, to absorb more resveratrol.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wine serves an important role both in Scripture and in the Christian church, but its significance has received relatively little theological attention in modern times. This book fills that gap. Viewing wine as a gift of God's created bounty and as a special symbol used pervasively throughout Scripture, Kreglinger canvasses the history of wine in the church, particularly its use in the Lord's Supper, discusses the fascinating process of winemaking, and considers both the health benefits of wine and the dangers of alcohol abuse. Offering a vision of the Christian life that sees God in all things - including the work of a vintner and the enjoyment of a well crafted glass of wine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from On the Uses of Wines in Health and Disease: Reprinted From the Practitioner In commencing a series of papers on the uses of Wines in health and in disease, we must briefly define the intended scope of our inquiry, in order to avoid misunderstandings. In the first place, it is no part of our object to discuss the question of the lawfulness or the advisability of using alcoholic liquors in general, either as food or as medicine; we shall take it as established, both by wide-spread custom and by the most recent physiological research, that alcohol as such, has its legitimate place in the sustentation both of the healthy and of the diseased organism. Nor shall we occupy space with the re-assertion of the doctrine, of the absolutely different effects respectively produced by the moderate and by the excessive use of this class of drinks.

Book Drinking in Victorian and Edwardian Britain

Download or read book Drinking in Victorian and Edwardian Britain written by Thora Hands and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-18 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book surveys drinking in Britain between the Licensing Act of 1869 and the wartime regulations imposed on alcohol production and consumption after 1914. This was a period marked by the expansion of the drink industry and by increasingly restrictive licensing laws. Politics and commerce co-existed with moral and medical concerns about drunkenness and combined, these factors pushed alcohol consumers into the public spotlight. Through an analysis of public and private records, medical texts and sociological studies, the book investigates the reasons why Victorians and Edwardians consumed alcohol in the ways that they did and explores the ideas about alcohol that circulated in the period. This book shows that they had many reasons for purchasing and consuming alcoholic substances and these were driven by broader social, cultural, medical and commercial factors. Although drunkenness may have been the most visible consequence of alcohol consumption, it was not the only type of drinking behaviour. Alcohol played an important social role in the everyday lives of Victorians and Edwardians where its consumption held many different meanings.

Download or read book The Red Wine Diet written by Roger Corder and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2007-09-06 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wine is good for you, and we finally know why. Wine drinkers are less prone to heart disease, diabetes, and dementia than non- wine drinkers. But what exactly is it about wine that keeps us healthy? Which is better for you, a California Cabernet or Syrah from the south of France? How can you choose wines that both suit your tastes and benefit your health? In a landmark study, Roger Corder revealed that compounds called procyanidins are the key components of wine for preventing illness. Now, in The Red Wine Diet, he argues that drinking the right kinds of red wine and eating procyanidin-rich foods such as dark chocolate, apples, and berries can help us live to a ripe old age-while enjoying all the pleasures of life. Corder's own tests show that, as a result of grape variety, wine-making style, and other factors, some red wines contain much higher levels of procyanidins than others. With a unique personal rating system, he describes the most beneficial wines he's found to date. And to round out his lifestyle plan, he includes fifty delicious recipes featuring foods that are high in procyanidins. Corder's prescription is an easy pill to swallow: Drink red wine every day and live a long and healthy life.
